telnet2

I am playing this wargame and i need to use telnet to get to the next level. what i need
to do is type drill.hackers.org, next to where it says host, but it doesnt work how long should i wait until i get sum thing can you help how thanks!!

If you can't get telnet to work, you will probably have a hard time figuring out how to get to the next level. Unless of course you download the answers from the internet. Although most of them are posted in Korean......

It might also get a while for you to get a prompt. I once tried connecting from Ireland (don't ask) and it took me about 2 minutes watch in hand to get a prompt. Their servers could also be running slow. It shouldn't matter which platform you are on while you use a proper telnet client.

if your pc is a node on a LAN (your pc is not directly connected to the internet via dial up or cable modem) then you may be behind a firewall which is blocking the telnet port. if you are at work or school, this is most likely the problem.
